Fanesca has a long history that dates back to pre-Columbian times, when the indigenous people of the Andes used to celebrate the harvest of different crops during the spring equinox. They would cook a soup with fresh grains and beans, such as corn, fava beans, peas, lentils and lupini beans (also known as chochos), which are native to the region.
"Sticta" is a genus of lichenized fungi, they are a unique type of organism that consists of a symbiotic relationship between a fungus and an alga or a cyanobacterium. They have a characteristically fishy smell (because of soluble amines), especially when wet.
Porotón is a legume that grows on a tree native to South America, especially in #Colombia, #Ecuador and #Peru. It has large pods containing white, fleshy seeds that resemble beans.
Wandering spiders are so-called because they wander the jungle floor at night, rather than residing in a lair or maintaining a web. Some species are being as large as an open hand. These spiders live mostly near ponds, rivers and other freshwater habitats, and can walk on water due to fine air-trapping hairs on the tips of their legs.
If you love nature and beauty, you don't want to miss the flowering of guayacán trees in Ecuador. These majestic trees burst into bright yellow blossoms that cover the landscape like a golden carpet. The spectacle lasts only a few days, usually between January and March, depending on the rainfall.

The term minimalism is also used to describe a trend in design and architecture where in the subject is reduced to its necessary elements. Minimalist design has been highly influenced by Japanese traditional design and architecture. In addition, the work of De Stijl artists is a major source of reference for this kind of work.

Our travelers’ stories
Ecuador / Galapagos Oct. 2019
"The Ecuador/Galapagos trip was really rewarding in every way! I can recommend it to anyone who likes sea and mountains and is looking for a varied program with a super tour guide. Many thanks at this point for the beautiful program and the great organization."

Ecuador Mountain Tour – Feb. 2019
"It was a very nice trip and I would have made all the peaks (...I'm a little proud of that... ). Unfortunately, Cotopaxi ruined our plans. The glacier was in a bad condition after a warm/dry phase and was not passable. There were still about 400 meters missing. Since I was the last to descend (I still needed the break), there was at least a perfect sunrise. That's how it is in the mountains. Everybody has to be aware of that. But it was sensationally beautiful at Iliniza Norte. Great up there above the clouds. If you like to see wide landscapes and challenging trekking, this is the right place. Tour guide Frank Dietze is a funny and competent guy and we had a lot of fun."

16 Tage Aktivreise – Ecuador – Feb. 2022
„Für mich war es eine traumhaft schöne Reise und ein abwechslungsreiches, buntes Programm! Frank ist so ein engagierter Reiseleiter, der uns das Land auf sehr authentische Weise näher gebracht hat und stets bemüht, dass alle Teilnehmer zufrieden waren. Zudem hatten wir den Wettergott auf unserer Seite. Kulinarisch waren wir ebenso bestens versorgt. Frank hat uns meistens in landestypische Restaurants geführt und dank seiner Beratung haben wir uns auch gern auf Unbekanntes eingelassen und es nicht bereut! Ich bin sehr froh, dass ich mich für diese Reise entschieden habe und kann sicher noch lange von den herrlichen Erlebnissen zehren!“

"...Unser Reiseleiter Frank war maßgeblich am Gelingen dieser wunderschönen Reise beteiligt. Durch seine Ortskenntnisse und den über die Jahre gesammelten Erfahrungen stellte er immer einen engen Kontakt zu Land und Leuten her. Die Organisation der Reise einschließlich Reiseverlauf waren perfekt. Ergebnis letztendlich die Besteigung des Cotopaxi von fast der gesamtem Reisegruppe. Die ausgewählten Unterkünfte haben mir sehr gut gefallen."
